[JoyBoy]

Thread Closed until Further Notice. Opening New Threads will Result in an Instant Ban

Well, as the thread got jacked, might as well hand it over to Half-Life 2.

Update 1: No Discussion of Bypassing Steam Activation. This is for Obvious Reasons. Instant Ban!

Update 2: Retail DVD (Europe) is protected with SecuROM 5.03.06.0002 (Thanks solo3)

Update 3: For all you people that purchased the CD Version of the game, a CD2DVD Conversion Guide can be found HERE. NOTE: At this stage the original CD1 is still needed to play (Thanks Grumpy)

**** on Half-Life 2. I want Rollercoaster Tycoon 3.

[cdkiller]

i bet the 2 first questions will be:

1.) can some1 please make a crack for this game
2.) is there a way to play hl2 without activating it with stream ???
heheh

[Luciel]

ive alredy reserved my copy, have u? more next week, same channel, same time... lol

[schlaufer]

cdkiller, you've forgot the basic question:

0) where can I d/l hl2

And imho the best thing about the HL2 release is, that they now finally can release Vampire 2.

[GLH]

I think BountyWarrior isn't reserving this sticky for HL2.

I think its for a new version of Tetris, or Minesweeper, or Freecell or something like that.....

LOL

(I hope the gameplay of HL2 will impress me more than Doom3 !!!)

[Luciel]

Minesweeper 2 using the doom 3 engine? xDxDxD

Need for Speed Underground 2??????

gimme gimme!!

[Luci]

oohhhhhhhh why did you say that man?now i'm sad cause i have to wait for another 3 weeks...

[Asimov]

So many great games coming soon. I must admit that Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines is at the top of my list just above HL2.

I can hardly contain my anticipation.

[Grumpy]

Only 11 sleeps to go!!!

I hope Half Life 2 is protected with the latest Starforce protection. Then we got a pain in the ass. . 10000 people are gonna beg for crack and crackers etc etc.. bla bla bla.
Lucky for us (not for the company) that Doom3 was only protected with SafeDisc 3.2........

the next big game should be the one im playing right now FLAT OUT

NOW THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD OF BEEN MADE IN THE FIRST PLACE

[Luciel]

the only thing thats missing from flatout that i liked from destruction derby games, is that, the wheels cant come off, and that no matter how much u bash the car it still goes on, whilst on the others u could tip an enemy car over or smash right into it and kill it, that was real fun
